Hi, i have noticed recently that often, when i press fly now, or change screens in the GUI, the screen will grey over and it can be up to a minute before anything happens. If I click on the screen during this time, I get the windows "this program is not responding". I have checked on process explorer while this is going on and can see nothing out of the ordinary, or that would indicate intensive system resource uses etc. It seems to only happen with FSX ( dont use the PC for much else though) and the sim always starts evenyually. I have had numerous installs and never come across this issue before. Any ideas? The PC works fine in every other respect.cheers, Mark

I've been getting this too Mark. Chief suspect is a W7 update (don't ask me which one).Try a virgin fsx.cfg to see if that cures it. It may just be yoursettings.IAN
